If you google around there are government agencies and websites set up for all types of spamming/scamming. I got some scam phone calls awhile back and reported them; it could be a coincidence, but I stopped getting them. Here's a place to start: http://www.usa.gov/topics/consumer/scams-fraud/report-fraud.shtml http://www.usa.gov/topics/consumer/scams-fraud/report-fraud.... So I'd say, report, report, report. Scammers and spammers go on for too long because people brush it off. The worst thing you can do to an email spammer is take the time to mark it as spam. The worst thing you can do to a scammer is to report it to the government - some justice department and/or federal and state representatives. Articles like this make it seem like nobody is doing anything, but with a bit of digging you'd find that consumer protection agencies and state and federal legislatures have been passing laws regularly to combat scamming/spamming/predatory loans.
